Arielle thought about it for a while and agreed with his sentiments.
Bad people who did bad things would never contemplate what would ensue if they were caught. It was the same as Cecilia doing drugs. She wanted that moment of thrill and never thought about the consequences.
After a soft hum of agreement, Arielle queried, “When will you be done with your work?”
“What's the matter?” Vinson let out a chuckle and asked, “Do you miss me?” She was silent for two seconds before tightening her grip on the phone. “Yeah, I miss you.”
Right as those words left her mouth, she felt her heart racing.
Technically, both of them were an old married couple. Yet, she still felt shy from saying that she missed him.
When Vinson heard her words, he was also quiet for a moment. Then, he said, “I'll buy the plane ticket now. No, I'll come by helicopter.”
“Don't!” Arielle hastily stopped him. “I know that many projects in your company are being set in motion.
Come to me only when you're done, or maybe I'll come to you once I find the clues I'm looking for.” “Then I'll come right after I'm done with the projects in Jadeborough. At the latest, I'll come before the day after tomorrow.”
“All right.”
At that, warmth welled up in her heart. The two of them then talked on the phone for a while longer. Although they were both on the call, they were busy with their own things. Once in a while, they would ask each other if they were still there, and a smile would appear on their faces upon hearing the other person's confirmation.
Only when Trisha reminded Arielle to eat her dinner did the latter end the call reluctantly.
Smiling, Trisha teased, “Everyone says that a long-distance relationship will make you understand how important your partner is, and it seems like that's really the case. Sannie, when will the two of you deliver me the good news?"
“The good news?” “Your wedding!”
Arielle lowered her gaze and chuckled. “It'll be soon, I think.”
Although the two of them had already registered their marriage, barely anyone knew about it. It was as if they were still unmarried.
Regardless, she had a hunch that the wedding would happen in the near future.
Right after dinner, Arielle received a call from Vinson again. It was a video call.
